Surely there must be more difference than this -- > these changes don't look substantial enough to me to warrant a rebuild from > test2 for most people. I usually don't put changelog entries for work that I do unless it makes a big user visible change. I've been spending some time reorganizing some of the code and this usually doesn't warrant a changelog entry (since the functionality is the same). Also there is a bug I added in test2 that I fixed in test5. In test2, in certain situations, the environment variables HOME and PWD are not initialized correctly. I didn't put an entry for this in the changelog since the bug was not in beta8. Because of this, I would recommend rebuilding if you are using test2. Also I've done some other small things such as adding the new BUGS files, the new FAQ, a new META-FAQ, updated the compctl-examples, and a made a few other changes of this nature. I admit it's not a huge difference from test2. Everybody doesn't have to build every test release I make. I'm just trying to make the latest snapshots available to people who are interested. rc
